The seller notes that the car was refinished in Signet Red with Snowcrest White coves during the refurbishment. The car is equipped with a white soft top, quadruple headlights, split chrome bumpers, fender vents, and dual exhaust outlets. The seller states that the hood latches were adjusted in 2023 and the hoses for the windshield washers are missing.
The 15″ steel wheels feature spinner-style covers and are mounted with Coker Classic tires measuring 205/75. The car came equipped from the factory with an independent front suspension and semi-elliptical rear leaf springs.
The cabin features two bucket seats trimmed in red vinyl along with a color-coordinated dashboard topper, carpets, and door panels. Lap belts and a dash-mounted rearview mirror are equipped. The turn signal switch was replaced in March 2023, per the seller.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a sweeping 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, battery charge, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 1k miles, and the seller reports that approximately 1k miles were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 283ci V8 features two four-barrel carburetors and was factory rated at 270 horsepower.
The stamping on the engine pad is shown above. The CU suffix is consistent with a 283ci V8 rated at 270 horsepower and designated for a 1958 Corvette with two four-barrel carburetors and a manual transmission.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a 3.70:1 ratio Positraction limited-slip differential.
